I would like to premise this post by saying that this is in no way politicizing the current events in the world. It is simply to say thanks and remind us who the REAL hero's in the world are. Last year as Independance day approached in the United States I posted these two Flash movies. I think it is appropriate this year to repost them for all to see.
LET US NEVER FORGET
Until Then
We Support You
The 2 above links require the FLASH MEDIA plug in to play. Internet Explorer has this by default so all you need to do is simply click on the link. If it does not work for you, email me at

and I will be happy to help.

Those two movies remind us of the price of freedom.
All who serve are heroes and deserve, at the very least, our support and gratitude.
Michael - Thank you for your efforts in keeping things real.

Michael, thanks so much for reminding us of the sacrifices so many have given for our freedom, and who are still fighting for that and for the freedom of others.
I was born in England, but I was so proud when I became an American by choice.
This country and the people in it generate so many positive feelings, and I thank God that I am now part of it.
My prayers and thoughts go out to all of the military and their families, and I pray they will all come home safe soon.

Thank you Michael!
I just spent the afternoon with my family on Mr P's side, as his birthday is tomorrow. We all got together to eat (of course) and visit.
My nephew is in Iraq right now. Ramadi, to be exact - a volatile and dangerous place eschewed even by Hussein's regime when he was in power.
Anyway, my sister in law hadn't heard from my nephew in nearly three weeks; the longest period of silence from him since he's been there, about a year. Needless to say, he was on our minds today as we were all together.
In the parking lot of the restaurant, her phone rang, and it was him! She told him to call back in twenty minutes and we all came back to our house.
While there, he called back and we all passed the phone around and spoke to him. He sure does have some stories to tell, and we always encourage him to tell them, no matter how bad they are. It's better than keeping them inside where they may torture him in nightmares the rest of his life.
He said it was 120 degrees there, and when they are in full body armor it adds another 20 degrees. He said they saw the new Star Wars movie on DVD a week after it hit theaters here in the states! They watch lots of DVDs and play video games and eat all the candy we send them when they aren't working or on missions.
They have their departure dates, but he isn't allowed to tell us when he's coming home. But he said it would be "soon." I can live with that.
Just thought I would share. Thanks again Michael!

Pamela - I'll keep you nephew in my prayers.
Michael
- Thanks for posting this.
My cousin was in Iraq from Sept 2003 to Sept 2004 and is now in the National Guard (he was active duty army stationed in Fort Riley). I know several people here have military family members at home and overseas. Audra's (STLClaycrazy) brother is going overseas this summer and I know it will be hard on her.
My prayers for our military and their families. It is never easy to be away from family.

Michael,
Thank you for posting those links. The movies were beautifully made, and they touched my heart. A friend of mine came home from Iraq, but sadly, did not survive. I hope that he understands how much he was loved. And still is.

I am grateful that I don't have any loved ones in the service right now. I don't know what I'd do.
Its hard having our troops there under the circumstances...I keep reminding myself to Support the Troops...they are the ones who need it most.
I will keep all of your loved ones in my thoughts, as I wish them nothing but safety and guidance in this time.

A close friend of mine just briught her daughter in to her home to stay with her. She is pregnant with a 4th child and her husband is on his 2nd tour in IRAQ. She also lost her brother on 9/11 We are always there to support her and the family. Living so near ground zero seeing it often enough and remembering the people we knew who died that day keeps it real as well. Their families will never be the same.Thank you Michael for the reminder,, It is important to reflect on what all these kids are doing and what their families are going through..(Prayers to your neph, Pamela)
We live in an amazing land.... Many have paid the price to insure our freedom and way of life. I feel proud that both my Dad and my husband served.No matter what side of the political aisle you sit, these kids who are doing it now deserve our prayers and respect.
Happy 4th of July to all!!

Thought you all might enjoy this picture. This was taken in one of the hangers at Fort Riley (KS) last September when my cousin came back from Iraq. These are signs and banners supporting our troops.

As the wife of an active duty Navy guy and the sister-in-law of an active duty Marine, thank you for that.
